Chapter 296: The Murderer
After recovering all the corpses in the vicinity and piling them up in the glade, Niu Hao couldn't help but feel sad.
There are not many disciples in Kongming Mountain, more than twenty.
More are the residents of Riverbend Town.
It can be said that not a single animal in the whole town was left alive, and all of them were poisoned.
Zhengwen had never seen such a formation, and sat on the side and cried silently.
The big man followed Niu Hao, brought a wooden pole to set up a pyre, and prepared to cremate the body.
The eyes exposed in the middle of the bandage were blood-red and blood-red, flashing with an irrepressible fierce light.
Niu Hao never asked who the big guy was before and what he had done.
According to Wednesday Tu's words, the big guy is also a villain who does all kinds of evil and is heinous.
It's just a big man who swears that he will sincerely repent from now on and use his good deeds to atone for the evil he has done.
Niu Hao believes in big guys.
Niu Hao believes that the good we accumulate now and the evil we are tired of are all causes. Sooner or later, it will turn into a fruit, and the reward will be on everyone.
So what the big guy is doing now is not for others, but for himself.
Set up the pyre, put the corpse on it, and Niu Hao lit the pyre.
Dark red flames burned up the sticks, making a crackling and popping sound. Flames licked at the corpses that lay on top of the pyre, billowing smoke.
Zhengwen wiped away his tears and stood up, walked to the altar, and recited the scriptures aloud to surpass the dead.
Burning corpses, emitting a foul stench. Niu Hao tore off the placket of a Taoist robe and covered his mouth and nose with Zhengwen. But it couldn't stop the pungent smell from coming in.
Billowing smoke drifted everywhere and soon filled the entire town of Riverbend.
Thick smoke wafted from all directions, enveloping the town of Riverbend and beyond.
The captain of the boat hurried with the boatmen, and was stunned when he saw the corpses placed on the ground and the corpses burned on the pyre.
The big man held a long wooden pole and reached into the fire to push away the corpse that was holding the flames down.
The corpse was scorched at high temperatures, and the fat from the roasted ketones dripped down, and when it was ignited by the flames, thick smoke and flames came out.
One hundred and ten corpses were burned one by one in the rolling flames, and it was impossible to tell who was who. The ashes that were burned could only be buried together.
The large skeleton was picked out of the fire, and Niu Hao picked the smoking skeleton back into the deep pit. Then I felt an extra figure on the other side of the pit.
The smoke obscured the vision, obscuring the figure on the other side of the pit, and it was also fleeting.
Niu Hao said to the big guy:
"Protect the news!"
The big man was so engrossed in burning the corpse that he didn't see the figure that appeared on the other side of the pit, and he didn't know why Niu Hao asked him to protect Zhengwen.
Hearing Niu Hao's shout, he still threw down the long wooden pole in his hand, strode to Zhengwen's side, and looked around to stay on guard.
Niu Hao rushed down the pit and rushed to the opposite side.
Who will it be.
In addition to the mountain ghosts of Baishangling, who else could it be.
The mountain ghost broke through the cage and went on a killing spree. The residents of Hewan Town, the disciples of Kongming Mountain, will miss and survive, but they have already fled and will never come back to inspect.
Therefore, it should be the smoke from the burning of the corpses that attracts those mountain ghosts to come back.
Niu Hao rushed up the slope, and the sound of bowstrings sounded in the depths of the thick smoke, and the sound of breaking the air immediately rushed to the face.
Niu Hao dodged sideways, his footsteps did not stop at all, and rushed up the slope.
As soon as he rushed up the slope, the sound of the wind sounded from the depths of the smoke and hit Niu Hao.
Niu Hao jumped on the flat bridge, heard the sound of the wind and thought overhead, and rushed forward to the figure hiding in the smoke.
The figure in front of him withdrew and hidden, and the bowstring sounded on the left hand, shooting a sharp arrow straight to Niu Hao.
Niu Hao pounced sideways, rolling on the ground to dodge the feather arrows. A three-pointed hunting fork stabbed out from the depths of the smoke and stabbed at Niu Hao.
Niu Hao rolled his body to dodge, and the palm of his left hand weaved shining runes.
The hunting fork that pierced out from the depths of the smoke chased Niu Hao one after another.
Niu Hao calculated the distance, and the runes in his palm fell to the ground, and a light blue glare wrapped around his body.
Seeing the three-pointed hunting fork stabbing at him, Niu Hao pounced on the hunting fork.
The hunting fork stabbed Niu Hao's body, stirring up a dazzling light,
Niu Hao grabbed the hunting fork with his left hand and pulled it into his arms, and his right hand turned into a fist and hit it out violently against the long handle of the hunting fork.
The guy holding the hunting fork was pulled forward by Niu Hao. Before his body could stand firmly, Niu Hao's fist came at him and slammed into him.
The guy let out a muffled grunt and stepped back.
Niu Hao's tiger momentum quick attack had already fallen on him.
The sound of a thumping fist made the guy's body tremble and fall on his back.
Behind Niu Hao, the sound of bowstrings sounded.
Niu Hao chased after the guy who fell on his back.
The guy threw away the three-pointed steel fork, pulled out the short knife on his waist, and stabbed at Niu Hao.
Niu Hao shook off the rune in his palm, and threw out a dazzling light to protect his body, blocking the short knife that stabbed him head-on.
On the other side of the pit, there was a loud shout. A glare of light pierced through the thick smoke and disappeared in a flash.
Niu Hao pounced on the mountain ghost, holding down the short knife he was wielding with his left hand, and then grabbed his throat with his right hand.
The mountain ghost bent his legs, trying to kick Niu Hao off himself.
Niu Hao clasped the mountain ghost's right hand and flashed a flame on the ground.
The mountain ghost was burned by the fire in Niu Hao's palm and let out a miserable scream.
Niu Hao grabbed the mountain ghost and stood up, and said loudly into the depths of the smoke:
"I'm a disciple of the upper court of Kongming Mountain, I caught your person, and I don't want him to die, so I will stop it all!"
Niu Hao said, dragging the mountain ghost to the location of Zhengwen.
Through the heavy smoke that obscured people's eyes, one could feel more than one mountain ghost, pulling the fast bow in his hand, or clenching the three-pointed steel fork.
But Niu Hao's hands caught their people. In the hearts of those mountain ghosts, even if the flame of hatred was burning, they could only hold on and did not dare to act rashly.
Zhengwen and the big guy, standing back to back.
On the chest of the big man, there are two feathered arrows. The feathered arrows pierced through the large armor-like bandages, and they lost the strength to continue shooting.
Niu Hao escorted the mountain ghost to Zhengwen and the big man, and the remaining mountain ghosts hid in the smoke around them.
Zhengwen looked at Niu Hao and asked Niu Hao with his eyes, what should he do next.
In the depths of the smoke, a figure suddenly appeared, walking slowly towards Niu Hao and Zhengwen.
The mountain ghost in Qingyang City has a pair of pointed ears.
The mountain ghost who came stretched out his two hands and signaled to Niu Hao, he had no weapon in his hand. Then he said to Niu Hao:
"Let him go, let's go. ”
Zhengwen looked at the mountain ghost and turned his head to look at Niu Hao.
These people have just created a massacre. The bodies of those who were brutally killed were not yet stiff.
Are these murderers, butchers, really going to let them go?
